Are the sexual enhancers you see on TV any good?

Asked by Quagmire (2088points) July 31st, 2009

Talking about (ex.) the KY Gels for her, or for couples… Are some better then others? What exactly do they do?

Any that I’ve tried I’ve been really disappointed with. KY comes off as this great brand that promises to give so much satisfaction and the fact is, it falls way short of giving any kind of mind blowing satisfaction. I’ve found that I’m better off without any extra help.

How does it work? Generates heat?

The warming gels work…kinda. It actually hurt after a while. Astro-Glide is good. It’s just a lubricant. It lasts & has no bad affects. All good. ;-)

@Quagmire yes some of the KY gel generates heat (the warming gel) and it feels ok at first but after too long it starts to numb you and get uncomfortable. If you’re looking for just a lubricant any basic one will do. I just don’t suggest any warming or tingling sensation ones.

@ItalianPrincess1217 I agree. It started burning, too.

@ItalianPrincess1217 , the lubricants are just that. I’m talking about the “enhancers”. What about the stuff that’s his and hers?

ItalianPrincess1217's avatar

Tried the his and hers. Lame. They just felt like regular lubricants. And they’re all so overpriced.

Quagmire's avatar

Ok, I’ll ask it…I presume you should NOT get any on your tongue?

ItalianPrincess1217's avatar

Never tried that…but if it makes your privates feel that funny I probably wouldn’t want any on my tongue.

Quagmire's avatar

Bummer. Then you have to stop what you’re doing, take a bath,...Bummer!

I wouldn’t want it in my mouth. It has menthol in it. That’s what’s supposed to cause the warming sensation. It definately wouldn’t taste good.

@jbfletcherfan You mean I’m not supposed to use Ben-Gay as a lubricant?

jbfletcherfan's avatar

@andrew noooooooo, LOL. You may want to light someone’s fire, but that’s not the way to do it. ’-)

The “male enhancers” like Enzyte are a scam. They’re successful because to get any money back from their guarantee, you need to go to a doctor and have him certify that your penis is smaller than average. Can you imagine any man doing that for any price?

What makes sex good is chemistry between people. Lubricants and toys can help with the physical part, but if the chemistry between the people isn’t there, the sex won’t be good.

@cwilbur 10 lurves for your post. Well said. :-)

Quagmire's avatar

@cwilbur, how do you know about Enzyte’s return policy?”

Anyway, I’m asking about the gels, primarily, AND assuming the chemistry is there. Does it make sex BETTER for either partner? Apparently not.

jbfletcherfan's avatar

Just the regular old lubes (Astro-Glide) do for me. :-)

Garebo's avatar

Not much luck with, nor have I wanted to use them; I prefer riding in a car that is already properly lubricated and ready to go.

jbfletcherfan's avatar

@Garebo The lack of being lubed up isn’t the only reason to use them.
